The primary reason that large numbers of people left Ireland in the 1840s and 1850s was MASS STARVATION.
Great Famine or Great Hunger was a period in Ireland where mass starvation, diseases, and emigration occurred between 1845 to 1852.
The Great Famine was caused by Phytophthora infestans, a disease that infests in potatoes. Though the potato infestation spread throughout Europe, it greatly affected Ireland, where 1/3 of its population was dependent on the potato crop as their primary source of food.
The loss of their primary source of food led to mass starvation, sickness, and eventual death. Others opted to leave Ireland and seek shelter and food in other countries to survive.
Which factor causes a decrease in the rate of dissolution?
decreasing the amount of solute
increasing the stirring of the solution
decreasing the surface area of the solute
increasing the temperature of the solvent
Answer:
The correct option of the first option
Explanation:
Dissolution of a solute in a solution is the process in which the solute interacts with the solvent leading to the disappearance of the solute to form a solution. Rate of dissolution is primarily affected by three factors namely
Stirring of the solution: Stirring the solution causes the solute to interact more with the solvent, thus increasing the rate of dissolution.
Surface area of the solute: The smaller the surface area of the solute, the more easier it is for it (the solute) to interact with the solvent. Hence, the smaller the surface area, the faster the rate of dissolution.
Temperature of the solvent: An increase in temperature of the solvent causes the generally causes more things to dissolve in this solvent due to increased energy of molecules in the solvent, which causes the molecules of the solute and solvent to interact more.
A decrease in the amount of solute will reduce the amount of interaction the solute (since it is in lesser quantity) have with the solvent hence the rate of dissolution will also be low (even though a solution will still be formed).
There are different factors that influences chemical equations. The factor that causes a decrease in the rate of dissolution is decreasing the surface area of the solute.
Dissolution rate is simply known as the transfer rate of some specific drug molecules from the solid particles which is usually crystalline in nature into solution as self free drug molecules. The rate of Dissolution can be determined by the forces of the crystal.Surface area is known to affect the rate of dissolution. Note that When the total surface area of the solute particles is increased, the solute will then dissolves more quickly than ever.
The breaking of a solute into smaller pieces in turn do increases its surface area and increases its rate of solution and the act of stirring, do allows the solute to dissolve faster.

Chelsea went ice skating. The ice, her skates, the Zamboni, and the rink building were all examples of solids she encountered. She developed a model of the particles in the ice. Which of statements about the particles present in her model of solid are true?????? Choose the statements that apply.
A. they vibrate in place
B. they slide past each other
C. they are packed very closely together
D.they cause the solid to have a definite volume and definite shape
I think it is d c and a I may be wrong☺️
Answer:
Answers are C, D
Explanation:
Solid particles always stick together no matter what happens unless it is changing into a liquid. If you are talking about vibration for solid particles that only applies to thermal vibratio so not A. They do not slide past each other because they are packed very tightly together. They have a definite shape and volume because they stay together unless facing heat. Hopefully this helps you :)
pls mark brainlest ;)
The statements about the particles present in her model that are true;
C and D
They are packed very closely together ( C ) They cause the solid to have a definite volume and definite shape ( D )Particles of solids are closely packed and this feature distinguishes a solid from other forms of matter ( liquid and gas ). Solids have a definite volume and shape due to their closely packed particles.
Vibration in solids occur when solids are under thermal pressure and from her skating activity, there was no form of thermal pressure therefore solids vibrating in place would not be included in her model.
Hence we can conclude that The statements about the particles present in her model that are true; they are packed very closely together and They cause the solid to have a definite volume and definite shape

Discuss the sources and harmful effects of the following air pollutants.(i) Carbon monoxide (ii) Sulphur dioxide (iii) Oxides of nitrogen
Answer:
Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx)
NOx is a collective term used to refer to two species of oxides of nitrogen: nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2).
Annual mean concentrations of NO2 in urban areas are generally in the range 10-45 ppb (20-90 µgm-3). Levels vary significantly throughout the day, with peaks generally occurring twice daily as a consequence of "rush hour" traffic. Maximum daily and one hourly means can be as high as 200 ppb (400 µgm-3) and 600 ppb (1200 µgm-3) respectively.
Globally, quantities of nitrogen oxides produced naturally (by bacterial and volcanic action and lightning) far outweigh anthropogenic (man-made) emissions. Anthropogenic emissions are mainly due to fossil fuel combustion from both stationary sources, i.e. power generation (21%), and mobile sources, i.e. transport (44%). Other atmospheric contributions come from non-combustion processes, for example nitric acid manufacture, welding processes and the use of explosives.
Sulphur Dioxide (SO2)
SO2 is a colourless gas. It reacts on the surface of a variety of airborne solid particles, is soluble in water and can be oxidised within airborne water droplets.
Annual mean concentrations in most major UK cities are now well below 35 ppb (100 µgm-3) with typical mean values in the range of 5-20 ppb (15-50 µgm-3). Hourly peak values can be 400-750 ppb (1000-2000 µgm-3) on infrequent occasions. Natural background levels are about 2 ppb (5 µgm-3).
The most important sources of SO2 are fossil fuel combustion, smelting, manufacture of sulphuric acid, conversion of wood pulp to paper, incineration of refuse and production of elemental sulphur. Coal burning is the single largest man-made source of SO2 accounting for about 50% of annual global emissions, with oil burning accounting for a further 25-30%.
Carbon Monoxide (CO)
Carbon Monoxide is a colourless, odourless, tasteless gas that is slightly lighter than air.
Natural background levels of CO fall in the range of 10-200 ppb. Levels in urban areas are highly variable, depending upon weather conditions and traffic density. 8-hour mean values are generally less than 10 ppm (12 mgm-3) but have been known to be as high as 500 ppm (600 mgm-3).
CO is an intermediate product through which all carbon species must pass when combusted in oxygen (O2). In the presence of an adequate supply of O2 most CO produced during combustion is immediately oxidised to carbon dioxide (CO2). However, this is not the case in spark ignition engines, especially under idling and deceleration conditions. Thus, the major source of atmospheric CO is the spark ignition combustion engine. Smaller contributions come from processes involving the combustion of organic matter, for example in power stations and waste incineration.
Ozone (O3)
O3 is the tri-atomic form of molecular oxygen. It is a strong oxidising agent, and hence highly reactive.
Background levels of O3 in Europe are usually less than 15 ppb but can be as 100 ppb during summer time photochemical smog episodes. In the UK ozone occurs in higher concentrations during summer than winter, in the south rather than the north and in rural rather than urban areas.
Most O3 in the troposphere (lower atmosphere) is formed indirectly by the action of sunlight on nitrogen dioxide - there are no direct emissions of O3 to the atmosphere. About 10 - 15% of tropospheric O3 is transported from the stratosphere where it is formed by the action of ultraviolet (UV) radiation on O2. In addition to O3, photochemical reactions involving sunlight produce a number of oxidants including peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN), nitric acid and hydrogen peroxide, as well as secondary aldehydes, formic acid, fine particulates and an array of short lived radicals. As a result of the various reactions that take place, O3 tends to build up downwind of urban centres where most of NOx is emitted from vehicles.

Explain how NOTHING is ZERO, but ZERO is more than NOTHING?
Answer:
Nothing can be zero, but zero isn't nothing. If someone asks you if you have money and you say "I've got nothing!" when you actually don't have a cent, then you have zero money. However, zero is a number, so it itself is something, therefore more than nothing. So technically, you do have something.
When zero is on a number line, you could classify it as nothing, but it is the number between 1 and -1. Hypothetically speaking, if you took the zero away, wouldn't the number line be the same?
Zero isn't positive or negative. The number zero on a graph, or in a coordinate can tell you where something is. Zero can be a word to describe if something is existent, or non-existent.

Potassium, K, had 19 protons, 20 protons, 19 electrons. What is the charge of the atom’s nucleus.
HELP
Answer:
+ 19
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Proton = 19
Neutron = 20
Electron = 19
Charge on nucleus =.?
From a background understanding of the structure of an atom, the nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons with the proton being positively charged and the neutron is neutral while the electrons being negatively charged revolve around the nucleus.
From the above question, we understood that the potassium atom has 19 protons which are all positively charged. This simply means that the nucleus has a charge of + 19 since the neutrons are neutral.
